which brand white miso paste to buy for miso soup?

I would like to know which brand of white (shiro) miso paste to buy for miso soup? I bought Miko brand mild paste from Uwajimaya. The soup didn't taste good so haven't used it after that :).Any recommendations would be highly appreciated.

Miso is a traditional Japanese seasoning produced by fermenting soybeans with salt, fungus, and grains. The mixture is allowed to ferment for 3 months to 3 years. It's also sometimes called "miso paste" or "soybean paste."
